Tasty turkey, herby basil pesto, and melted cheddar are layered between warm grilled bread to make this delicious Turkey Panini! It’s an easy 15-minute recipe that can be made with or without a panini press! 

Turkey Panini

dark rye bread (or focaccia)

turkey meat

red peppers

basil pesto

cheddar cheese

Turn on your panini press to get it nice and hot.

Once you’ve got all the ingredients laid out, it’s time to start building the panini sandwiches. Begin by spreading some basil pesto on one side of each slice of bread. Then top 2 of the slices of bread with the sliced turkey, cheese slices then roasted red pepper. Now, put the other 2 slices of bread on top and your paninis are assembled and ready to grill!

Transfer the turkey pesto sandwiches to the press and grill them for about 3 minutes or until the cheese has melted and grill marks have formed.

Delicious way to make some inroads into all the leftover turkey from Canadian Thanksgiving. Served with a chopped salad with roasted sweet potato and apples and pears, and it was a delicious, low stress dinner. Thanks for another fabulous recipe!

My sister in law bought me a Panini maker, and I am looking up recipes to try with it this summer. Although I will buy the Pesto, instead of making it myself. I don't much like avocado, so recipes will be w/o that.
